Näitus: Kuidas kunst saab aidata? Eriliste inimeste maalid
Description of initiative
The exhibition «How can art help? Paintings and stories of special people» represents a selection of paintings and stories of people with mental health problems. This event is not just an exhibition, is also a social project. None of the authors' names are in the exhibition, but their stories are. The audience can become more familiar with mental problems (from depression to schizophrenia) that affect us all to a greater or lesser extent. The authors' stories are about their sufferings, situations they faced, their relationship with art and how art helped them.
